I ran across the original thread while lurking around the forum. I downloaded a half dozen or so of the titles mentioned in the thread and was able to jump start my engravers library. Since I wasn't registered at the time I was unable to make a "Thank You" post. Thank you Steve and everyone else that contributed to that thread!

By the way, I had problems downloading these pdf files too. I am stuck with a dial up Internet connection and noisy phone lines. Some of the more popular file servers have started sending end of file signals during peek usage times when your download takes too long. This results in unusable partial files. I was able to work around this by downloading the book files at a client's with DSL when I went in to backup his system.
